I would also appreciate the pane specific colors...it would help keep track of what I am studying. Liked the idea, also, of the active pane being indicated somehow...glow, bright, something.

Jim L. West: This thread has been dead for a while, but must add my 2 cents. Pane specific appearance formatting overall (i.e. background color, with more choices, font size, and not simply percentages but size, when I enlarge the font size right now it also enlarges the tool bar out of the boundaries and I cant see it.) In general more control of appearance overall would be much appreciated by these 52 yr old eyes. Thanks, love the program!

Glad this has been brought back to life. Ditto on the above. I would love to see the ability to choose any color we want from the windows color pallette and the ability to also change the font color the same way and to be able to change the colors in individual panes. A skinnable interface would also be a bonus!
Harry, you are absolutely right! At 1920 x 1050 pixels in my screen, 1 pixel is like, ah... 0,05% width change, near to impossible to detect.
Keeping it alive...Customizable colors would be a big +!

I was looking at the Kindle PC reader which had a gray background - I would really appreciate this added to Logos. Anyone heard anything about this?
I am a sofware engineer - and in MS VS.NET (programming tool) I use black background (see attached).
I would like local control!!!!
Thanks for asking.
Logos 4 Windows has program settings option to use Windows default, which can be specified in Personalization control panel for Windows so can show yellow text on black background in Logos 4 (along with using visual filters):

Not a bad idea, so I bumped it by one.

Did you know you can select a gray background (as well as several others) via the Tools > Program Settings > Accessability ?

Paul F Robbins: Is there a way in L4 to change the background color from the default white? I use either a gray or tan background to ease eyestrain when doing prolonged reading. L3 picked up the Windows setting so I was wondering if L4 could be customized. Thank you.

You can do that. Just go into program settings and choose your poison. I have mine set to paper which isn't that much different from white but which takes a bit of the edge off the glare.

Knew this - but the colors are strange and have not similarity to those available to most Windows programs. In addition they are global - every window looks the same. We are looking for the ability to add individual colors to individual panes. Even if we only had the LOGOS colors, it would be an improvement to the current situation, though not ideal.

You mean that you want the Christmas tree look? You could try L3 again, but that's only the links.

Actually, Zondervan did this right with their Pradis product - alas it is no longer available. Though there were many gains when Zondervan allowed LOGOS to publish their materials, this was one loss.
I second this. It would be nice if we could customize both the background color and font color for each individual window.
This may be a dead issue, but since I am new to Logos I thought I might chime in.
In the kindle app for tablets, or even for PC, there is the option to change the background to a nice sepia-tone cream color with dark brown letters. This makes it much easier to simply sit and read. The grey background available is ok for study, but it is not very pleasurable to sit and read. I think it would be nice to be able to have the option to function more like an e-reader when one desires.

If you go to "Tools | Program Settings" you will fing "Resource Panel Background" under "Accessibility" which allows a choice of backgrounds.

Current stable and beta Logos 4 Mac releases have Resource Panel Background with 6 background choices. Due to technical issues, Logos 4 Mac is missing Program Scaling.

Welcome
Windows 7 Control Panel for Personalization has option to specify Windows background color, which can be used in Logos 4 so sepia-tone cream color background can easily be done. For brown letters, could create a highlighting style, then select and highlight a lot for reading.
